Well it'd be more of a lateral move than starting over. And nothing would happen for at least a year. I found out about an opportunity that I might have and I am thinking I might go for it.

...even if it might lead to me having to one day shave my beard.

Agreed. That I am even considering such a thing speaks volumes.

I have a gotee for about 3 days, then for the rest of the ~month I have a beard (because I only shave about once a month).

I have been able to grow a beard since I was in 7th grade. I can scarcely imagine so handicapped and underprivileged a life as the peach fuzzed ones must live.
